Comments Thread For: Tank is Firm That Romero Fight is Last One With Mayweather: I Need To Control My Own Career

[Bronx2245]

But his career is being run by a great fighter. So why are they in this position? Has Mayweather forgot what it takes to be great?

Mayweather has personal beef Oscar and Arum, and Ellerbe hates Hearn, so where does that leave Tank?

Yeah true. But it's better to have him, than to risk someone else having him, surely. Stop hindering the kids career because of ego. It's after you lose something, you realise it's true value.

So what I he looking to accomplish here? Is he looking to be able to fight better opponents? Or is he looking to just get more money,for more of the same, without paying Mayweather?

mom not privy to his decisions. What I do know is when fighters promote themselves they keep more of their money.

Yeah I understand that. I was just curious of your opinion on what his play is here.

so he says he wants to get rid of the training wheels (wards phrase must have stung him) & floyd, so does that mean the training wheels were floyd

Wouldn't mind seeing him go to Top Rank, so many good fights to be made. I doubt Golden Boy is a realistic option.

Perhaps he could pull a Canelo and be a true free agent? Not sure if that's the best course for him but I'd love to see him fight the marquee names from bother Bob and Oscar's stables.

Facts. They're just tired of Mayweather promotions. He'll still remain with the PBC.

Right On!

They seemed to have done alright making Tank into a good draw but his resume could be better - maybe this thing all about getting more money but sometimes when I listen to his interviews, I think he wants to know how good he really is. Time flew by, he's is 27; don't waste this talent and power .

One of the few guys who can host fights in "non-boxing" cities which is great; he's got casual fans, he doesn't have the large set of hardcore fans behind him like Floyd did though. Gotta make those legit fights for that

Ok, maybe he will. Either way, Tank is big enough not to be signed with anyone. He can float between all the networks especially if he has his own promotional company which he does now. He will probably always be signed with Haymon as an advisor but that wont stop him from fighting anywhere just as it never did with other fighters aligned with Haymon who have fought on other platforms and networks. No matter what, it’s probably Tank you should be emailing directly since “pbc fanboys” don’t dictate financial or promotional terms….

That would be fine also. Signing with PBC means no good fights for him though so I hope he either stays independent or goes to TR on a 2 or 3 fight deal and gets some big fights. It's time to see what he's made of.

problem with mayweather as a promoter is that hes only interested in promoting himself.
